The last rays of sunlight disappeared with the setting of the sun, but there was still a trace of clarity between heaven and earth, so that Taihang Mountain did not immediately darken. The breeze blew slowly, and Liao Fan, who was standing on the top of the mountain, felt a trace of coolness, and also blew away a trace of unhappiness in his heart.

Standing on the top of the mountain, Liao Fan skimmed the treetops of the north wind, and his eyes fell on the roof behind the headquarters. Liao Fan sat down against the mountain wind, the stones under his buttocks still carried the temperature of the sun during the day, and Liao Fan gradually closed his eyes.

Maybe there is a providence in the underworld, since he came to this world and came to Taihang Mountain, he has carried more and more things. It's rare to have such an opportunity today, Liao Fan needs to make things clear, otherwise these things will crush him sooner or later.

From seeing the death of the first fellow in battle, Liao Fan realized that he had to fight for his own survival, to the artillery position that bombed the little devils, Liao Fan realized that he had to fight for him and Liao Jundong to survive, until he became the battalion commander and regiment commander, and he began to fight for his troops......

Now that the 33rd Independent Division has tens of thousands of well-equipped soldiers, Liao Fan is becoming more and more confused, fighting for his own nation and country, this sentence is very easy to say, but if you really want to do it, Liao Fan may not be able to do it in this life.

In order to comfort his unhappy mood, Liao Fan laughed at himself that I was still young, and the road ahead was very long, and when the time came, he would drive the little devil out of China, and plant a few acres of thin fields in this mountain with Fu Hongyu to guard the graves of the brothers who died in the war. But at the moment, he had to consider the current situation of these tens of thousands of soldiers, they had to survive, and they had to defend their hometown from the scourge of the little devils, which made them pick up guns and fight the little devils.

The sky was getting darker and darker, and the last trace of clarity disappeared into the darkness, at this time Liao Fan was completely shrouded in darkness, in order to ensure Liao Fan's safety, Lu Liming had to call the soldiers to get as close to Liao Fan as possible.

Listening to the firm footsteps of the soldiers, Liao Fan suddenly felt a trace of guilt in his heart, these soldiers were desperately trying to protect him, why didn't he protect them from harm as much as possible, thinking of this, Liao Fan suddenly felt a glimmer of light rise in his heart.

In order to protect him, there have been many warriors who have sacrificed, for the sake of the warriors who have already died and not to let more warriors sacrifice, he must make himself strong, it doesn't matter if there is no hope, he can create hope, as long as he goes out step by step, he believes that he can see the dawn of the sun, and victory will definitely belong to them, but also to this nation that has stood for thousands of years.

Liao Fan stood up and walked down the mountain, and in the darkness he was walking on the ground, and the soldiers who followed him almost tripped over the rocks. Lu Liming followed closely behind Liao Fan, he wanted to know how Liao Fan practiced and walked so smoothly on this bumpy road.

When he returned to the headquarters, it was already nine o'clock, and after a hurried meal, Liao Fan decided to give himself a night off.

"You're on duty today, and I'll leave everything here to you." Liao Fan said to a soldier standing guard at the door.

Before the soldier could react, he was pressed on the chair in front of the desk by Liao Fan: "Anyway, you are also standing guard tonight, just stand here for me all night, if there is anything you deal with boldly, I will definitely not hold you responsible." ”

Before the soldiers could refuse, Liao Fan fell asleep on the bed in the headquarters. The soldier glanced at Lu Liming and wanted to ask Lu Liming what happened for a while.

Lu Liming accidentally twisted his foot when he was going down the mountain, and limped and said, "You just stand guard and be on duty, and I will go back to sleep." ”

After snoring all night, Liao Fan slept very sweetly, and in the morning, listening to the unknown bird chirping outside the window, Liao Fan was in bed for the first time.

"Brother Fan, you woke up, the soldier on duty had just fallen asleep, and I had already asked him to go back." Chu Pengtian walked into the headquarters and saw Liao Fan on the bed staring at two big eyes and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Oh, how's the training of your spy class?" Liao Fan was still lying motionless, he didn't like this feeling, because he wanted to empty himself.

"Brother Fan, don't you watch it every day, and I don't steal and cheat." Chu Pengtian sat on the chair and looked at Liao Fan, "Brother Fan, you see that our training has been so hard these days, just give us a day off, if we continue to train like this, the soldiers will feel very boring." ”

"I've got something new, would you like to hear about it?"

"Brother Fan, what's new, do you want us to go out on a mission?" Chu Pengtian has already been suffocated in addition to training and training in the past few days, and he is looking for an opportunity to go out for a walk.

"Go to the various units instead of me."

"Ahh Brother Fan, you still run errands. Chu Pengtian suddenly lost his curiosity about the new task.

"This is not an ordinary errand, I asked you to go to each battalion for a run, not each regiment." Liao Fan said to Chu Pengtian seriously, "After greeting the four regiment commanders, and then going to the various troops under them to take a look, it will help you in the future." ”

"Oh, I see." Although I didn't know what to do, since Liao Fan gave the order, Chu Pengtian had no choice but to carry it out, "Is there anything you want me to bring to them?" ”

"No, after you went, you said that I asked you to go and see them instead of me."

Liao Fan thought about the investigation of the special combat team, since the twenty people led by Chu Pengtian were called the special agent squad, he should also be asked to go down and have a look, at least pretend, although they had no connection with the spies.

Let Chu Pengtian take the spy squad to deliberately fight the grass and scare the snake once, at least to make those lurking spies scratch their heads, once they can't sink, maybe they will take action. Anyway, the fighters of the special operations team have already been arranged, and as long as the hidden agents have a little action, they will definitely leak out.

"Brother Fan, then you can lend us twenty fast horses, so that our degree will be fast." Chu Pengtian said.

"Yes, remember that this is just borrowing, borrowing and repaying."

On the morning of the same day, Chu Pengtian left the station of the division headquarters and went out to the various regiments, according to the order given to him by Liao Fan, his first stop was to go to the fourth regiment first, then to Beitai Peak, and finally to the first regiment and the third regiment.

After Chu Pengtian left, Liao Fan got up and washed up briefly, and then went to the artillery battalion, since the artillery battalion was handed over to Liao Jundong, Liao Fan saved a lot of trouble, he wouldn't even take a look, because he believed in Liao Jundong, and this trust was trust between brothers.

When he arrived at the station of the artillery battalion, Liao Jundong wanted to salute Liao Fan, but Liao Fan hurriedly grabbed Liao Jundong: "Brother, I'll come to see you." ”

"You stinky boy, have you forgotten our artillery battalion if you haven't come for so long?"

The artillery battalion is the simplest unit of the 33rd Independent Division except for the special combat team, because the soldiers of the artillery battalion have been strictly reviewed by Liao Jundong, and if there are spies to infiltrate, they will definitely be found out.

"Where can I forget, this is our trump card, and we have to point to the artillery battalion when we fight with the little devils, my brother is in the artillery battalion, of course I don't have to worry about it."

"There must be something going on today, right?"

"Brother, how many people are there in the artillery battalion now?" Liao Fan asked.

"There are more than 800 people, of which 500 are recruits we have just trained, and they have only undergone simulated training, and they have not fired a single shell." There has been no fighting recently, of course Liao Jundong can't use cannonballs to train the soldiers, their cannonballs are all hard-earned from the warehouses of the little devils and puppet army, and one is one less, so Liao Jundong only conducts simulation training for them.

Liao Fan thought for a while: "Brother, there are still too few people, at least until the thousandth." ”

"That's fine, but we don't have enough guns to distribute." The artillery battalion now has more than a dozen mountain guns supporting the façade, and the rest are mortars, and as for the two French howitzers captured from the bandits, they have long been out of shells and have become scrap metal.

"The first regiment, the second regiment and the third regiment, there have been more actions recently, these guys like to hide and tuck, brother, you have to think of a way to let them spit out a little, otherwise these guys will have to form an artillery battalion in a regiment." Liao Fan said with a smile.

"Haha, it seems that it's time for their three regiment commanders to support me, as for the fourth regiment, forget it, the fourth regiment is still in its infancy."

"Recently, Li Weimin has also learned badly, and he likes to hide good things." Liao Fan shook his head helplessly, in fact, he also knew Li Weimin's thoughts, now the 33rd Independent Division, the first regiment and the third regiment are the fastest, even Liu Chundao can't bear it, and when he is in Beitai Peak, he will sneak attack the artillery position of the little devil, and of course the second regiment cannot lag behind.

The logistics department's weapons were all relied on by the three regiments to be captured, and this was a compulsory order given by Liao Fan, and half of the combat materials captured by the three regiments were to be sent to the logistics department. Of course, the three regiment commanders will not be so honest, if they want to show their troops, they will definitely need materials and equipment, and when they encounter good things, no one wants to deduct a little, especially artillery.

"I'll go to see the three regiments of them recently, we lent them artillery, and it's time for them to pay me some tuition." Liao Jundong said with a smile.

The artillery battalion is nothing but the heavy firepower foundation of the 33rd Independent Division, and the purpose of Liao Fan's formation of the artillery battalion is to lay the foundation for more powerful firepower in the future.

After inspecting the defenses near Nanchang, Gangcun Ningji returned to Wuhan by special train, thinking that Wuhan would once again become his forward headquarters. This time his goal was not to go south, but to go north. Although Gangcun Ningci likes big cities very much, but this time he changed his taste, he wanted to taste what Taihang Mountain tasted like, he didn't believe that a small Taihang Mountain could stop their elite troops of the Great Japanese Empire, and he didn't believe that a mere Liao Fan would become a stumbling block to his conquest of China.

In the headquarters in Wuhan, Gangcun Ningci ordered the intelligence department to find out everything inside Taihang Mountain as soon as possible.
